Parent care groups are designed to provide a space for support, education, and understanding so that you have the tools and capacity to love your kids well.
Open to foster and adoptive parents in all stages of the journey, care group gatherings are casual and confidential.
Moms Group
Moms Care Group allows for candid discussions aimed at empowering and encouraging your parenting. Whether you come to the table with a specific challenge, or simply wish to be in a community with other moms who share your experience, you are welcome.
When we meet
Both offerings are always open to all foster/adoptive/kinship mamas - regardless of location!
Dads Group
New in 2021, the goal of Dads Group is to build camaraderie and connect you with men who are navigating a similar experience. Here, you’ll find support while navigating foster/adoptive parenting, guidance through the gospel, and connection with other like-minded fathers.
When we meet
First Thursday of the month: 7 pm-9 pm (sometimes in person, sometimes over zoom)
We also encourage you to lean in and join us in fostering this community of parents on Facebook!

What parents are are saying…
“The daily challenges faced with being a mom of 2 adopted sibling brothers can be overwhelming at times. These challenges were compounded with COVID-19, including remote learning, trying to work from home, and not being able to go to playgrounds or other public places. I looked forward to knowing that I would be gathering with my mama friends on Saturday mornings to praise each others' accomplishments for the week, exchange and brainstorm ideas on how to deal with difficult situations, and to pray over each other. I feel like I have my tribe that can understand the daily challenges I face. Many times it's so easy to feel like you are on an island by yourself and Dwell’s Care Group is a gentle and necessary reminder that you are not. I am beyond thankful for Dwell and the fact that they are my tribe, provide me with calm, remind me of grace, and pray over me and my family.” - Foster/Adoptive Mom
